[NSFW] Last night, BROKENTIER’s MarlinPie showed off some interesting tech for flight characters on his Live_oratory stream. By pressing S and an attack button at the same time when unflying, the character unflies while instantly performing the corresponding normal attack. This nullifies the quarter-circle back motion for the attack button, preventing QCB air special moves from being performed when unflying. Kyohei showcases this trick with Nova, using it for some easy TAC infinite loops.

The glitch can also used to cancel out of normal moves, if the 214S+Attack motion is done during hitstop. This allows for delayed normals, which Kyohei uses to start a TAC infinite with Doom, from mid-screen.

MarlinPie also displayed what he claims to be a non-TAC infinite with Spencer. The infinite simply consists of Zip Lines, but has some strict height specifications, requiring a very low super jump, making it seemingly difficult to perform.

Hm, it doesn’t look like an infinite to me. Looks more like a loop, very similar to like Hyper Grav loops. It goes on for awhile but at some point the character drops out. I realize Marlin dropped it a lot as he doesn’t even use Spencer, but there were a few times he got it down for awhile and it just looked like it dropped. Once where he started the loop immediately and was able to get like 5-7 reps before it dropped. Another he did the Ammy assist combo and it dropped after 2-4 reps. Sounds like a similar situation with HG loops.

Nah, it’s an infinite…Spencer has two moves that ignore two different rules of the game: s.H Wire Grapple and Zip Line. The former never succumbs to damage scaling, and the latter never succumbs to hit stun decay, no matter how long the combo lasts…He super jumps to allow the next iteration of the zip line to connect within the hit stun frames of the last zip line in the air…it’s definitely an infinite, just difficult as hell…impractical, but someone will master the timing eventually

Hate to rain on marlins parade but wasn’t that glitch found in vanilla with Sents unfly H+S,im just saying.
